Poor ovarian function is generally associated with premature ovarian failure, aging, medications, and surgical interventions. Gynecological conditions such as endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease can also impair normal ovarian function, leading to its decline. Additionally, unhealthy lifestyle habits—including chronic sleep deprivation, excessive alcohol consumption, and smoking—may contribute to ovarian functional deterioration.
